Happily bought the ticket when YOLO told me there is AirAsia Sale. Impulsive buying again. Gonna make full use of this trip since this is going to be my second honeymoon with my hubby.
Seoul, Korea.
Winter.
Me + Hubby.
It is gonna be an awesome trip!
First, let me start with the recommended 5 days travel itinerary by the Korea Travel website.
Link: http://english.visitkorea.or.kr
Day 1: Seoul: City Tour Sightseeing at Changdeokgung Palace → Insadong → Cheonggyecheon Stream → N Seoul Tower → Hotel or shopping at Dongdaemun Market
Day 2: Sightseeing in Suwon Depart from Seoul to Suwon → Sightseeing at Suwon Hwaseong Fortress and Everland → Back to Seoul
Day 3: Namiseom Island Depart from Seoul → Namiseom Island → Gangchon Resort (go night skiing and spend the night at Gangchon Resort)
Day 4: Seoul Gangchon Resort (go skiing in the morning) → Back to Seoul
What I can see from the suggested itinerary of what are the must visit are, heritage palace, food market, amusement park, night market and ski activities. Thus I make sure I visit all these attractions but which to go is the decision to make.
